X^2 - 8x-9=0
D = b^2- 4*a*c = 64- 4* (-9) = 64+36=100 =10^2
X1 = (8-10)/2 = -1
X2= (8+10)/2= 9

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

(a) C(x)=500+20x-5x^{\frac{3}{4}}+0.01x^2

    p(x)=320-7.7p

    R(x)=(320-7.7p)p=320p-7.7p^2

(b) x=82 \text{planes}

(c) p=\$30.91 M\;\; \text{per plane}

(d) maximum profit =\$ 15.90M

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The company estimates that the initial cost of designing the aeroplane and setting up the factories in which to build it will be 500 million dollars.

The additional cost of manufacturing each plane can be modelled by the function.

m(x)=20x-5x^{\frac{3}{4}}+0.01x^2

(a)  Find the cost, demand (or price), and revenue functions.

   C(x)=500+20x-5x^{\frac{3}{4}}+0.01x^2

   p(x)=320-7.7p

   R(x)=(320-7.7p)p=320p-7.7p^2

(b)  Find the production level that maximizes profit.

    f=R(x)-C(x)

 \Rightarrow f=320p-7.7p^2-(500+20x-5x^{\frac{3}{4}}+0.01x^2)

\Rightarrow df=320dp-15.4pdp-20dx+5(\frac{3}{4} )x^{\frac{-1}{4} }dx-0.02xdx

     x=320-7.7p

     p=\frac{320-x}{7.7}

    \frac{dp}{dx} = \frac{-1}{7.7}

\frac{df}{dx}=\frac{320}{-7.7} -\frac{15.4(320-x) }{7.7(\frac{-1}{7.7} )}-20+5\frac{3}{4} x^{\frac{-1}{4}} -0.02x=0

    \Rightarrow -41.5584+83.1169-0.2597x-20+3.75x^{\frac{-1}{4} }-0.02x=0

   \Rightarrow 21.5585+3.75x^{\frac{-1}{4} }-0.279x=0

   \Rightarrow x=82 \text{planes}

(c)  Find the associated selling price of the aircraft that maximizes profit.

  p=\frac{320-82}{7.7}

\Rightarrow p=\$30.91 M\;\; \text{per plane}

(d)  Find the maximum profit.

Manufacturing cost of one plane is:

m(1)=20-5+0.01

         =\$15.01 M

maximum profit =\$(30.91-15.01)M

                           =\$15.90M

PLEASE HELP
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

5.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the formula to find the area of a square is l^2= area and l=length

in this case we already know the area but not the length

so we have to find the square root of 30 as the opposite operation needs to be used to find the missing number

so

√30= 5.47

5.47 rounded= 5.5

the length of one side is 5.5 in
